... , Douglas Jay, William Rodgers, and Mary Benson of the Africa Bureau.(21) It is easy at this distance to be indignant about Labour politicians hobnobbing with the CIA. But in 1955, say, when Saul Rose left his job as Labour's International Secretary, the media simply did not discuss the Anglo-American intelligence and security services. There were Americans with money scattered about the higher reaches of the Labour movement in Britain; but Americans with money had been scattered about Britain since the war years, they had been Britain's allies only a few years before, they were anti-Stalinist - and some of them, the labour officers in one guise or another ...

... analysts in DoD intelligence agencies should routinely monitor internet traffic related to their responsibilities. DoD intelligence agencies should investigate the role of the internet in helping co-ordinate the operations of political activists and paramilitary groups in regions of interest. An early warning capability should be established that uses internet messages to help identify developing situations overseas that could lead to security threats. Officials planning and conducting DoD civil affairs programs overseas should be informed about any activists working in their vicinity who use the internet. The DoD should continue to monitor the evolution of the internet and its role in national security. The internet should be incorporated in Psyops planning as an additional medium.

... CIA and FBI. CIA officials, both before and after the assassination, misreported what happened, falsified documentary records, and concealed the surviving tapes of Oswald's alleged telephone conversations.(2 ) In this collusion the CIA had the support of a sister Mexican agency which it had helped to create, the Mexican Dirección Federal de Seguridad (Federal Security Police), or DFS. The DFS, before it was abolished because of its deep involvement in Mexico's drug traffic, was a key agency in the Mexica Gobernación (Ministry of the Interior).(3 ) It also had close links with the FBI as well as the CIA, being part of a tradition of bi- ...

... exports are good for British foreign policy and influence abroad. Arms sales could be stimulated in ways - essentially bribery - which, that nexus believed, had no awkward political repercussions in the UK. For a free market Tory regime could not be seen actively - let alone successfully - intervening in the domestic maufacturing economy. And because the 'national security' blanket could be thrown over arms sales, the payment of millions - maybe billions - of pounds of bribes and general ripping-off of the public purse could be done on the quiet. Hence Malasia and the Pergau dam fiasco; hence arming Iraq, Iran, Saudia Arabia, Indonesia and who knows which other scum-bag ...

... Sunday Telegraph (28 January 1996) reported that RUC detectives had met the author twice, had visited the sites where the author claims to have dumped the bodies, and appeared to be taking the allegations seriously. In the final paragraphs the Telegraph provided what looks like a fall-back position if bodies are found: 'Privately, police and security forces veterans believe that "Bruce" could have been part of a renegade band of soldiers who may have carried out some "freelance killings." ' To my knowledge this is the first time such a suggestion has ever been made, and, if substantiated, it would be nearly as damaging as the Bruce's story of this SAS ...

... events became extremely bearded as news of the anti-hijack assault broke virtually simultaneously with the news of the discovery that in Germany, at Stanheim Prison, three leading RAF prisoners had met sudden deaths (and a fourth was found injured but survived). All four had been held in separate cells, totally isolated, under Conditions of maximum security. Davies includes a speculative chapter on these developments. The official version is that Andreas Baader and Jan-Carl Raspe had had fire arms smuggled into Stanheim and had concealed them despite daily cell searches, and shot themselves. Davies states quite categorically that he cannot accept that the firearms allegedly used by Baader and Raspe could have been secreted ...
